Application multi-windows on Win32 & Linux

Hello,

I want to use SDL in an application with more than one window under
Windows and Linux.

The version 1.2.13 can’t manage multiple windows. I have seen on the SVN
that the next version 1.3 will manage multi-windows.

Actually, I can create multi windows by forking the process but it’s not
very cool^^, does anyone know another method to create and manage
multiple windows with SDL without forking the process ??

And does anyone know when the version 1.3 will be released (or any
version or patch that allow multiwindows on Win32 and Linux) ??

Thank you.

In 1.2, you probably won’t be able to do much besides one window per
process. It’s not something to be trivially patched in 1.2, either.
That’s why we rewrote this for 1.3.

If the Subversion trunk works now, you can use it. :slight_smile:
